Security and Compliance

How to Navigate Cloud Vendors on the Market Today

Choosing a cloud SaaS provider involves far more than features and pricing — security and compliance are the foundation of any trustworthy vendor relationship. But the acronyms are dense and the claims are hard to evaluate. This guide demystifies the security and compliance landscape so finance leaders can ask the right questions and make confident vendor decisions.

Learn how to: 

  • Understand SOC 1 and SOC 2 compliance — including why Type 2 Reports and all five Trust Service Principles matter. 

  • Evaluate HITRUST Risk-based certification and what it signals for vendor's data protection practices. 

  • Assess ISO 27001 certification and why an ISMS framework is a baseline for vendor security posture. 

  • Ask the right questions about cloud infrastructure — including data residency, uptime, and backup strategy. 

  • Evaluate SSO, SAML, and MFA support to ensure seamless, secure access for your team. 

Not all cloud security claims are equal — and the gaps matter. Download this guide and use the included sample questionnaire to evaluate any vendor against the standards your organisation deserves.
